Theoretically, this is not a really difficult question ... I'll provide a little more information in hopes it might help shake loose some response:
I am using a digital minutes recording program (For The Record) to record committee meetings which last anywhere from 1 to 6 hours. After the meeting minutes are transcribed, the audio files are posted on our website for access by the public.
During the course of an meeting, a break may be called that may last from 5 to 30 mins, but the recorder is left on. We would like to eliminate this gap of inactivity from the audio file before uploading it to the web. (If we turned off the recorder during the break, we would end up with two audio files, and would still need something like WavePad to "knit" them into a single file for public downloading.)
It may be that WavePad was developed by people who only contemplated it would be used to work with single songs of less than, e.g. 30 mins. in length; I'm just trying to find out what the upper limit is for the length of a single audio file that WavePad can work with, so I can tell whether I need some other software to accomplish what we need.
Unfortunately, the WavePad online technical support page fails to provide this information during their brief discussion of the limits of duration for files in WavePad.
So ... does anyone know what that upper limit for audio file length is?
Thanks,
